面对当前国内外城市建设对桥梁美学艺术的新需求，由于桥梁结构与造型艺术之间的关系有其自身特殊性，难以照搬或直接引用建筑结构与建筑学、建筑美学之间的现有相关课程。桥梁与建筑交叉课程建设应运而生，课程建设包括了教材编写、教学大纲和人才培养模式改革等几方面的工作，其中又以教材建设为核心和龙头。城市桥梁建筑理论与美学创作是以桥梁结构理论及其工程技术为专业基础，以建筑学专业的理论体系及其技术路线为理论基础，以桥型结构技术、功能与造型及其三者内在关系为研究对象，关于城市桥梁的、综合技术与艺术的理论与创作的交叉学科。通过精心编排本科生和研究生课程的教学大纲、教学内容，策划教学方法以及考核方式，同济大学先后开设了这一交叉课程的研究生专业选修课程和本科生精品类通识课程，实现了本科和研究生课程的衔接和贯通，交叉课程与原来两大学院各自专业课程的衔接和贯通。课程建设和培养模式的改革，将桥梁结构单一技术思维的工程设计提升到桥梁技术与艺术的综合思维创作,目标是系统培养桥梁结构专业和建筑城规专业学生的技术创造力和美学创意素养。

Considering the new demand of bridge aesthetic art in urban construction at home and abroad, it is difficult to copy or directly use the existing relevant courses between architectural structure, architecture and architectural aesthetics, because of the particular relationship between bridge structure and form. Bridge and architecture interdisciplinary emerges as the time requires. The curriculum construction includes the compilation of teaching materials, the reform of teaching syllabus and personnel training mode, among which the teaching material development is the core and the leader.The theory and aesthetic creation of urban bridge architecture is based on the theory and engineering technology of bridge structure, the theoretical system and technical route of architecture, the research object of bridge structure technology, function and shape and their internal relationship, and the interdisciplinary subject of theory and creation of urban bridge, comprehensive technology and art.By elaborately arranging the syllabus, teaching contents, teaching methods and assessment methods of undergraduate and graduate courses, Tongji University has successively set up the interdisciplinary elective courses of graduate major and undergraduate excellent general courses, realizing the connection of undergraduate and graduate courses, and the connection of interdisciplinary and the two colleges' own major courses.The reform of curriculum construction and training mode will promote the engineering design from pure technical thinking of bridge structure to the comprehensive thinking and creation of bridge technology and art. The goal is to systematically cultivate the technical creativity and aesthetic creative quality of students majoring in bridge structure and architecture and urban planning.
